CHICAGO, GURNEE, HOFFMAN ESTATES, NAPERVILLE, TINLEY PARK, IL …

The Olympic break is over and DirectBuy Club has just the ticket – two tickets actually – to get Blackhawks fans ready for the NHL Playoffs. This March, DirectBuy of Chicago North, DirectBuy of DuPage County and DirectBuy of Lake County will help fans get playoff-ready by entering them for the chance to win two tickets to the Chicago Blackhawks versus St. Louis Blues game on Wednesday, April 7, 2010.

“Even though it’s an Original Six team dating back to the very beginning of the NHL, I think it’s safe to say that Chicago Blackhawks fever right now is at an all-time high,” said Mark Perry, DirectBuy of Lake County’s Managing Partner. “We’re really looking forward to this month-long celebration of what we hope will become a drive toward the Stanley Cup.

Fans who attend an Open House at either DirectBuy of Chicago North, DirectBuy of DuPage County or DirectBuy of Lake County will automatically be entered into the drawing and also receive a piece of authentic NHL apparel or memorabilia, while supplies last. The promotion officially kicked off on March 6th and will run through March 31st, with the winner being announced on April 2, 2010.

“In just a few short years, the Blackhawks went from taking a backseat to the Bulls to the hottest ticket in town. That’s why this drawing is particularly exciting because not everybody has access to or can afford to buy tickets,” said Brent Gilliland, Managing Partner at DirectBuy of Chicago North. “We set up this special raffle to celebrate what’s been a very successful year for the Blackhawks and hopefully a shot at a championship.”

While the raffle itself will award two tickets to a Blackhawks game to some lucky fan, DirectBuy Club also offers everything else hockey fans could possibly need to watch the playoffs from home – flat screen TVs, recliners and home theater seating, even kegerators for your den or entertainment room – at direct insider prices from your favorite brand names. In addition, each DirectBuy Club employs product specialists and designers who can help members create the “man cave” or entertainment room that works best for their home.

Fans can also enter by sending their name, address, phone number and e-mail address on a 3 x 5 index card to DirectBuy, Attn: Mike Georgeff, 8450 Broadway, Merrillville, IN 46410.
